Christmas Refillable Sachet Ornament

Designed By Julie A. Bolduc

I made this sachet refillable because potpourrie does tend to lose it's scent over time. It is really small and fast to make. I used real Balsam Fir cuttings to fill this sachet but if you do not have access to a Fir tree, you can use any potpourrie which is made for christmas. You do not need much filling. Just 1 tablespoon. Plus this will make a wonderful bazaar item.

Materials Needed:
Small amount Southmaid size 10 crochet cotton any desired color.
Christmas red was used in the example.
Size 7 steel crochet hook.
14" red picot edged red ribbon ¼" wide.
1 tbsp potpourrie
Ornament hanger of choice.

Yarn Thickness: 10thread
Gauge: 10sc=1"
Finished Size: =1½"x2½"
Skill Level: Beginner
